Student charged for pop bottle bomb
By Stephanie Rutherford
STAFF WRIER
An eighth-grader who was
expelled for placing an explusive
device in a Millennium Middle
School hallway was formally
charged on June 23 by Oakland
County Juvenile Court on a
charge of “placing an explosive
device near property with the
intent to terrorize, frighten or
cause a disturbance?’
South Lyon Police received
notice of the charge, which is a
felony offense carrying up to a
five year sentence. At press time,
no court date was set.
The 14-year-old student was
expelled from the South Lyon
school system for one year on
June 3, for placing a homemade
“pop bottle bomb” in a hallway of
the school.
A second eighth grade student
was returned to school after a
brief suspension for his connection to the placing of the small
bottle bomb.
No charges have yet been
issued against the second boy.
“The charge has been issued for
the individual who actually physically placed the explosive device
•
in the school:’ South Lyon Police
Lt. Steve Sharpe said. “We have
not been notified on the other
boy’s charge?’
The two eighth grade students
were arrested by South Lyon
Police after the bottle bomb
exploded in a school hallway May
20 during school hours. No students were nearby, and no one
was injured.

Mystery postcards alarm Salem
By Kate Phillips
down any businesses. No business that is in operation now
will be affected.”
The ordinance is equipped
with a grandfather clause, contrary to the postcard alert.
According to this clause, all
businesses that are currently in
operation are not affected.
The postcard was signed from
“The
Salem
Township
Information Group?’ The group
failed to provide their own
information, as there is no contact ~name,phone number or•
mail, and the group is untraceable.
This same group had sent out
a letter to some home-based
businesses in May. The letter
incorrectly wams, “The Salem
Board of Trustees is about to
pass a new ordinance that will
drastically curtail or close down
most home businesses or any
business in an area not zoned
commercial?’ It provides the
home• phone number and
address of Paula Hornback, the
chair
of the
Planning
•Commission and urges people
to contact Hornbaek because,
“Your business depends on it?’
STAFF WRITER
Last week Salem residents
received a mystery postcard
warning that the township is trying to shut down home businesses. The postcard is without
factual basis, so it might be
nothing more than an electionrelated scare tactic.
Salem Township is revising
the home business section of its
zoning ordinance. The Salem
Township planning commission
is holding a public hearing and
possible vote at 7:30 p.m. meeting. If approved, the ordinance
will then go to a vote at a future
board of trustees meeting.
This ordinance doesn’t regulate or shut down businesses as
the postcard warns. It only specifies which type of businesses
can be operated in residential
zoning. It is not more restrictive
than the previous ordinance
it merely clarifies the current
ordinance.
“There are
no major
changes,”
said
Zoning
Administrator Bill DeGroot.
“Nobody’s looking to close
—
“Nobody’s looking to close down
any businesses.
No business that
is in operation
now will be
affected.”,

•
Hombaek addressed the letter
at the May 11 township board,
meeting. She explained that a
grandfather clause is in place, so
that the ordinance does not
affect any business currently in
operation. She also explained
that the ordinance is not any
more restrictive,, but simply
clarifies the existing ordinance.
